Music of Character

Description

Description

Other-worldly sounds
The wide range of Chinese instruments includes not only those from the Han of the Central Plains, but also those from ethnic minorities of more obscure regions. That is why Chinese folk instrumental music is so full of character. This is a concert to showcase the various types of folk instruments that are less familiar to the frequent concert-goer. They include the bass gehu, shuangguan, xun, rewap, aijik, sompoton etc. Conducted by Chew Hee-chiat, Resident Conductor of the HKCO, will transport you to the idyllic lands of high mountains and obscure valleys of China.
